Control Program and Optical Improvements of Fresnel MicrospectrometerA microspectrometer has a circular geometry, and is designed with the Fresnel diffraction equation. This enables a dramatic miniaturization of the optical parts of a spectrometer over 100 times by volume. Therefore, it enables the construction of spectrometer arrays such as 100X100 microspectrometers for tunable multispectral or hyper-spectral imaging. It can be used for a massive, simultaneous spectral scan from multiple optical sources such as 10,000 optical fibers.
